An Archery Mule Deer Rut Hunt - One Good Chance

[@hunt_excelpaulbais2876]

Trail is such a good story teller. His grandkids are going to like hearing Grandpas hunting stories some day

[@GOHUNT]

He's such a gem of a human! Thanks for watching the film.

[@jaybrendel486]

Thanks for voice over giving us the decision making. Best GoHunt original so far. Loved how you organically integrated GoHunt digital tools/maps in there too. I like seeing real people on real hunts facing real challenges.

[@GOHUNT]

@@jaybrendel486 Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@DitchBag]

Agreed they are normally awesome but this one is cream

[@nofnzs5507]

WHAT AN INCREDIBLE HUNT!!! Editing and music were AWESOME!! I’m 75 and not a hunter but I love love watching bow hunting videos! 🧡 from Texas!

[@GOHUNT]

Appreciate it! Glad you enjoy the videos, it's a great way to experience the thrill of the hunt!

[@sierraridgereaper]

What a story, ups and downs and ends with humility and elation... Bowhunting at its core... 🙏

[@jeremymons6769]

Great film, I love the authenticity. This film shows the rollercoaster ride of hunting perfectly. Great job Trail and Luke.

[@GOHUNT]

Thank you! That means a lot.

[@nichanson27]

Beautiful story that’s captures it all. Luke needs a shoutout, that guy has some serious talent. Favorite hunt film yet

[@MindfulHunter]

Excellent film. Luke knocked this outta the park!

[@GOHUNT]

Thank you, yes he did!

[@koltonallen-di7cu]

Gotta be my new favorite. I appreciate the honesty and showing us your thought process. Have a lot of respect for you, that buck was well deserved!

[@GOHUNT]

Thanks for the kind words! Hope you had a great weekend and glad you enjoyed the film.

[@jhford1234]

Such a privilege watching this. The quality is superb and Trail does such a tremendous job telling the story and bringing us along for the ride. Being new to hunting and trying to DIY it, I'm sure it's only going to help me harvest my first Mule Deer. Thank you, Trail and GoHunt!

[@GOHUNT]

Thanks for watching! Glad we could help.

[@WadeTheWild]

Unreal Trail, what a story, all the way around. Thanks for capturing it so well Luke. Primo fellas.

[@GOHUNT]

Cheers, thank you!

[@dannyfernelius1764]

Great job! The hunts not over until it's over! I hunt by the 90/10 rule...90% effort 10% luck and what the mountain gives you! Great buck, thanks for taking us along and giving us your thoughts along the way, Trail!

[@GOHUNT]

Thank you for the kind words! I agree, it's all about putting in the effort.

[@chasebader9540]

What an outstanding film! I have been tuned into GoHunt through the insider account, I have watched every podcast, every gear review, every video. What you guys do and how you paint the picture of what truly hunting is about and expressing the highest of highs and the lowest of lows is top tier. I’ve been on that roller coaster before and it’s something that is hard to put into words because it’s something that only you will experience. I’m a religious man and I know without a doubt that God put that buck crossing the road in front of you to give you closure. I believe God put you and that buck on the road there at the same time to give you peace and to show you that he’s alright and you can keep hunting for another one. Some may call me crazy but that wasn’t a “fluke” that he ran across the road 3 or so miles from where you shot him the day before. God works in mysterious ways!🙏🏻 Trail you have and always will be an inspiration for me and for other hunters in the hunting industry. Thank you for all that you do.

[@landonbraithwaite5146]

Man I love Trail

[@kylekrupiak1364]

Best 4Runner commercial I’ve ever seen lol. But actually great film thanks for sharing!

[@DrSchweez]

Great video! I love the voice overlay and the longer format.

[@stevevanthul8448]

One of the best hunts I’ve watched all fall! Great Job and thanks for sharing!

[@Spencergetty8879]

That may be my favorite of your films! What a great story!

[@kylekuenzi3984]

Great video all around! One of the best GoHunt videos yet! Nice work Trail! Way to stay with it.

[@GOHUNT]

Thank you! Glad you liked it!

[@michaelherscovitch911]

Trail is truly inspiring and an incredible ambassador of the craft of bow hunting. Thank you for all the lessons you share. Great film!

[@jeffreyp8381]

Amazing film but the last few minutes are incredible

[@GOHUNT]

Thank you glad you liked it!

[@thekrugler]

Absolutely phenomenal. Luke's filming and editing were incredible. Capturing the entire story from the highest of highs to lowest of lows, hitting an all to familiar mental wall. GoHunt put's out some excellent films but this one was something special. Thanks for sharing, keep up the great work.

[@TheLintond]

Always love your videos Trail! Your patience and grit is what I need to learn more of.

[@GOHUNT]

🙌

[@markrich5465]

Absolutely phenomenal film! It doesnt get much better than this. And Luke with yet another killer film! GoHunt crew putting out top tier content every time🤙

[@GOHUNT]

Thank you! Means a lot hearing that, and we agree, Luke does an amazing job at filming and editing.

[@thelowery7777]

Great film guys, I get so inspired by these hunting films/stories. I hope to be half of the archery hunter trail is, good luck on the remainder of the year.

[@GOHUNT]

@@thelowery7777 We are glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the kind words. Keep after it!

[@steventurner83]

Tuff break on a nice buck. It happens and it won’t be the last time. Good on you for showing it. I enjoyed this video. Good job trail, still harvested a nice buck.

[@GOHUNT]

@@steventurner83 Thank you, glad you enjoyed the film🙌

[@knuckledragger2412]

Awesome hunt. Thanks for sharing. Really shines a light on hunting until the very end. Outstanding!!

[@WesternWild509]

Sweet buck, Trail! Great film too. Hunting can be such a rollercoaster but that’s part of what makes it so damn exciting!

[@GOHUNT]

Thanks!! Hunting never really goes as planned, and things don't always happen picture perfect.

[@ericgiles1971]

So much fun to watch Trail! So much rings true for most of us that hunt Mule Deer! Great work!

[@philliplundell8682]

Amazing video Trail! 🔥🔥🔥 I have had more than my fair share of heartbreak with archery mule deer! So glad you don’t have any quit in you! GREAT BUCK!!!!

[@davidwills8803]

Awesome adventure. Trail thanks for sharing your experience. And fantastic video work and editing.

[@wayneroberts7852]

Agreed, that was an amazing story and hunt, it was calming yet had my attention! Awesome hunt

[@GOHUNT]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@Rconley374]

Great film, great hunt….gave me chills!!

[@wyattbeckstead9118]

You guys make other hunting channels hard to watch! Always cool to see someone as dedicated to bow hunting as Trail is, and that camera work was top notch.

[@jeremygarde6820]

Amazing story! We have all been there and I was there this year on an elk hunt. Thank you for sharing the highs and lows as we all feel alone in the moment but it is a shared suffering with all hunters.

[@trentkitchen3851]

Hell of a Toyota commercial. Nice buck

[@bbond302]

About the most interesting and compelling road hunt video out there

[@GOHUNT]

Thanks for watching!

[@bbond302]

I enjoyed seeing Trail's emotion after getting the buck after giving up mentally. Something I think all of us hunters go through. The pressures of home and family, shame of not bringing home meat. Victorious in the end.

[@haverstock]

Top notch film. What I’m here for. Inspiration I need after a tough season.

[@michaelcarr7544]

These hunting influencers get all the luck wish I had a buck just stand there next to the road 😂😂 Awesome hunt. The hard work and suffering made for an easy finale. Once again, Trail, you showed us how it’s done. Thanks for this film.

[@GOHUNT]

The hunt was a definite nail-biter! Every now and then it's great when things work out, or a layup is presented. Thanks for watching!

[@timss7763]

Awesome video from the Gohunt crew, especially Trail. I’ve been thinking about going to archery for several years now, but this video did make me appreciate my modern rifle season. I would imagine that it’s a tough call on whether to move forward after wounding an animal, I think I’m going to stick to my rifle and hope I never have to make that call. Anyway, great job Trial! It looks like you put in the work and earned your dear. I hope the other one lives to see another year.

[@jacquezsimmons3360]

This Film really motivated me to get back out in the filed with my bow! Be down in the dumps with Spot n Stalk Whitetails in NW Oklahoma. All you really need Is ONE MORE CHANCE!

[@GOHUNT]

@@jacquezsimmons3360 KEEP AFTER IT!

[@WildTines]

Man! What an awesome film Trail! The emotions you going through on the first buck reminded me of my Archery Elk hunt last year with a bull stepping out at 70 yards broadside.. and me not taking that shot.. a shot I’ve made so many times in practice. Spent the next 4 days not seeing any elk.. went home empty handed and haunted for not ever taking that shot. Way to go trail! I love all the videos you have been a part of man! I love your passion for bow hunting and it motivates me! Cheers! Here’s to 2025 hunts!

[@juliojimenez-juanz6751]

What an amazing hunt brother! Thank you for sharing it with us!!

[@GOHUNT]

Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jordanmotruk5827]

Love the efficiency! Two bucks on only one tag!! Inspirational!

[@stevenkoskinen9452]

Wow great Film, I guess if you bow hunt, you totally understand the emotional roller coaster that happens day by day, it's as real as it gets. High five to all involved, great stuff. How did you attach your quiver to your hip, love the idea of a hip quiver while stalking, hate having it on my bow.

[@progradepainting3755]

Amazing dude! That’s, what bow hunting is right there.

[@GOHUNT]

@@progradepainting3755 You know it! Tough but so fulfilling🙌

[@muskytribe7911]

Awesome video. Well filmed. Fantastic story. Great job trail. Keep it up man

[@Terpedup925]

Awesome video guys. Trail, I was hopping that deer at the end was gonna be the first deer. That would have been wild.

[@GOHUNT]

Thanks you!

Nice Trail! Love this

[@GOHUNT]

Appreciate ya!

[@justinwilson6151]

Way to stay at it! What a stud of a buck. I was in your shoes this year as well but on a bull elk. I made the decision to hunt on and I believe my cousin just killed him in 2nd riffle. Those animals are tough! But I’m glad it came together for you!

[@Lexidezi225]

Once the snow comes in up there it’s way harder to run all those roads. Actually impossible in a pickup truck. You can drive the main roads but not the two tracks. Snowmobile is what you need. I’m gonna try my atv up there this December for my buddies cow elk tags. It gets very very cold in that part of Nevada in the winter. As always trail, nice video

[@GOHUNT]

Best of luck on the hunt! Hope we get some great weather soon.

Great story Trail. Tough break on the bigger buck. I think you would have shot under his brisket if he wouldn't have jumped the string.

[@NinJoeOutside]

Luke what body and lens did you use on this film?

[@LukeDusenbury]

Canon R3 camera body, and various Canon RF lenses.

[@NinJoeOutside]

@@LukeDusenbury Thanks for the hard work! This film looks fantastic!

[@StrateOutdoors]

Incredible hunt and on such a tough tag to get. Tons of deer out there. Did you get a buck on that late season hunt in Utah last season? I spoke to you on the phone about some pants a few weeks before the hunt. I blew my chance on day 6...

[@trailkreitzer9163]

Hi there, I didn't have a late season deer tag in Utah, so I'm not entirely sure what may have been miscommunicated on my end. I had a deer tag in Utah last year, but I killed a nice buck with my bow on the early archery hunt.

[@StrateOutdoors]

@@trailkreitzer9163 hmm, I thought it was you spoke to, perhaps it was someone else. It was a late October hunt in Central Utah. I had called about a sizing question, and the guy on the phone (apparently not you) had the same tag. If it makes you feel a bit better about that first shot in this video, after living in the mountains for 6 days I finally found a buck, and put 3 bullets over the top of him. A few months later when I finally made it back to the range, I realized my elevation turret wasn't on zero. It was first hunting season, but sounds like I'm in store for a lot of retarded mistakes.

[@ShittiFilms]
